Though eaten like a cucumber, this is actually a ribbed, pale-green melon with tender skin that never needs peeling. Direct sow in warm soil after frost or start in pots, and trellis the long vines to keep fruit straight. Provide steady moisture and full sun for the sweetest, most tender fruit. Harvest at 12 to 18 inches while still slender, since oversized fruit turns seedy. Regular picking keeps the vine setting new fruit through the heat of summer.

Відстань між рослинами: 12–18 дюймів
Висота: 60–84 дюймів
Дні до схожості: 5–10
Температура ґрунту для схожості: 21–32°C
